Luosang listened silently, nodding from time to time. Zhou Xiaoye, the girl who did the voice of a supporting female character said, âHonestly, we are all average-looking, but Luosang, youâre so good at acting and so pretty. Why do you insist on working behind the screen? Itâs such a waste.â
âI agree. You see, Zhong Yi isnât as pretty as you are, but still, she became a star,â said Chang Xiao. âWell, I think sheâs indecent. Was staying with Yi Jingxi not good enough? She cheated on him, and now sheâs miserable. Although the Yi Group now has problems, too, a starved camel is still bigger than a horse.â
âBeing a star can make you rich, but many problems will occur when you become famous. We are much freer than those stars.â Luosang smiled.
âThat is true. You are basically carefree. All you need to do is to cherish your handsome and rich boyfriend. You donât need to strive so hard for a place in the entertainment industry.â Zhou Xiaoye sighed. âThe entertainment industry is all about money. Letâs take Zhong Yi as an example. Sheâs used to her luxurious lifestyle, but now she canât get any jobs, so she became Mr. Miaoâs mistress.â
âWe know about that,â said Feng Cheng. âLast time, Director Tang saw them in a restaurant.â
âThereâre something you donât know yet. Here is the shocking news,â said Zhou Xiaoye mysteriously. âI heard from a friend of mine whoâs a journalist that last week, Zhong Yi was taken to the hospital at night. Itâs said that there was a large wound in her private area, which even needed to be stitched. The Miao familyâs people managed to keep that secret.â
Luosang was so shocked that she even forgot to swallow the food in her mouth.
âThat Mr. Miao is so sick.â Feng Cheng was surprised. âHow much does Zhong Yi love money? Does she have to do that to herself?â
âWe donât understand, either. In the worst case, she could just leave the entertainment industry. I guess sheâs just unwilling to give up that glorious life, so she has no choice but to fall into hell.â Zhou Xiaoye sighed again and said, âMr. Miao is rich indeed, but is also famous for being sick. His marriage with his wife exists in name only.â
Feng Cheng waved a hand and said with dislike, âAlright, letâs stop talking about these kinds of things. They are just too negative.â
After dinner, Luosang called Nian Junting. The call wasnât answered. Tonight was his grandmaâs birthday party, so she guessed that he should be busy greeting the guests at this time. She heard that this was his grandmaâs eightieth birthday, and that many guests would attend the dinner party.
...
Tianxi Grand Hotel, Forth Floor.
Nian Junting and his cousins were welcoming the guests at the entrance.
Nian Juntingâs grandma had three children who worked in either the military world or the business world. Originally, they only planned to book a few tables and hold a small party with their families and friends to celebrate their motherâs eightieth birthday, but the news somehow spread, and quite a few uninvited guests showed up to offer birthday felicitations.
Nian Junting arranged a seat for a guest, then turned around and saw Captain Liu from the Armed Police Corps walk over with Leng Shuangwei. âJunting, youâre more and more handsome.â Captain Liu laughed. âThis is Leng, our new instructor.ân/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âUncle Liu, Miss Leng, please come in and have a seat.â Nian Junting politely nodded at Leng Shuangwei and said, âMy father is over there.â
âIâm gonna go and say hi to your grandma first.â Captain Liu walked in with Leng Shuangwei.
Looking at Leng Shuangweiâs back, Nian Junting frowned slightly. One of his cousins patted him on the shoulder and said, âAh, the military world is small. We canât do a thing about it.â
Nian Junting nodded and replied, âIâll leave this area to you. Iâm gonna go inside to offer seats to the guests.â
âGo.â His cousin waved a hand.
At six oâclock, Nian Junting sat down at the head table, glancing at all the guests. The look in his eyes suddenly changed when he saw Zhong Yi.
